It's a cultural center. Not a Mosque.

Would you have complained about the plan on September 10, 2001?

So much for not letting the terrorists change American, eh?

Would you be so good as to point out which section of the US Constitution guarantees ANYONE the 'right' to a 'cultural center'?

That the USA is not Saudi Arabia is a gratuitous insult to the intelligence of everyone who reads this blog…first you argue that it is protected by the Constitution since it is a place of worship….then you argue that it is a 'cultural center'…which of course is NOT protected by the Constitution….now you try a 3rd tact….that it is a 'religious cultural center'….i'd say you've had your ass handed to you but you won't realize that till you try to sit down later

That os NOT what the 1st Amendment says,you ignorant alien clown….the 1st Amendment applies to laws Congress may or may not make….many cities have zoning laws that forbid places of worship being built in residential areas etc..and the Supreme Court has ruled these zoning laws Constitutional….but thank you for showing your ignorance of MY country's Constitution….and for taking 3 different positions on the same subject…taqqiyah much?

Which is entirely beside the point….you wish to argue Constitutional points of law when the 3rd world toilet you live in doesn't even HAVE a constitution…or allow freedom of worship to non muslims…it isn't 'checkmate' when you aren't even man enough to play by your own rules or use your real name here

Awww now isn't that CUTE!!…the poster who has to hide behind a synonym is pretending he is playing a chess game and that the game is over because he finally had to hide behind his 3rd argument…that Cordoba House is a 'cultural-religious center'…and will you say 'checkmate' when the ground is saturated with pig's blood before construction and rendered forever unclean and the mosque cannot be built there?…will you then whine and cry that it isn't 'constitutional' for union construction workers in NYC to refuse to build it?…no…you will cry that it is 'bigotry' and 'islamaphobia'…so you keep on pretending this is your own little personal chess game…and since you really have no personal stake in this matter, your opinions as to whether this is simply a Constitutional matter are irrelevant….there is a lot more involved than simply the 1st Amendment…and we both know that as a muslim,you would eliminate it if you could

For the record you are intellectual and moral coward for not using your real name here and for feigning concern for the 1st Amendment when the muslims you deign to defend would deny that same right to anyone else who does not bow to Mecca if they had the power to do so and for aiding and abetting what is clearly a deliberate insult and provocation to not only the families of 9/11 victims but to ALL Americans who were heartbroken by what happened that day…..if you are not aware of what the symbolic historical meaning of the name “Cordoba House” is meant to convey,then I suggest you read a history of the Moorish conquest of Spain…in any case,sir,you are no friend of the US if you ally yourself with those who hold us in such contempt that they would build it there….but for the record,the islamic promoters of this monstrosity claim it is NOT a mosque or house of worship at all…but a cultural center ONLY….”like a YMCA”…so your assertion that this is a 1st Amendment issue fools only yourself

I've read books like this, have you?

Your stupidity is irritating.

You sank my battleship.

Missed the part where this was a momument.

Checkmate.

Too late.

The U.S. Constitution addresses religion ONCE. The First Amendment states, in part, that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;”.
The original intent of this was to prevent Congress from establishing a State Religion.
It says NOTHING about regular citizens and localities making decisions about when and where buildings can be built.

Gee, you finally got something right.
However, obamao does bow down to the King of saudi arabia, thereby demonstrating to the world that we are benighted. them where before we were One Nation Under God, with no other nation above us.
We bowed to no other nation before obamao.

There are no such things as islamic cultural centers. They are all mosques. Prayer at every one. And these particular islamists are not even hiding what their intention is. You do know what happened at Cordoba dont you?

Evangelical and/or fundamentalist Christians do not go around lopping off peoples heads, stoning women, raping children, murdering family members.

Yes, the koran is evil. There is nothing there about co-existing equaly with any other religion or people. And the crickets chirping in the background = a lack of muslims distancing themselves from Islamists.

I suggest you read this book

I suggest you read this website:

http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/

I see you've decided to add an argument to authority fallacy to the long list of fallacies you've already blundered into.

And I suggest you extract your head from your large intestine.

After your comment that “one death is the same as another” etc, your opinions are totally worthless, shit for brains. Nothing you say has any consequence, you are a moron who is incapable of reason and logic. You are a mouth breathing drooling simian minded shit for brained toxic drain on society.

More Americans are killed each year in car crashes.

Should we stop allowing the building of car factories?

Your minimization of car crashes is insulting to the families of the tens of thousands of people that killed in car crashes each year.

Statistically, one is a far greater threat to the average American.

They are the same thing.

Death is death. And statistics are statistics.

The dead are dead.

Obviously nothing threatens us more than your delebrate theft of oxygen, shit for brains.

the hundreds of thousands of people murdered in the name of islam outnumber the people who die in motor vehicle collisions, shit for brains.

I missed the part where it was a monument.

Checkmate.

Glad to see you checkmatted yourself.
Not my fault you are stupid enough to put yourself in a corner.

I got a feeling that bloomberg will not be getting re-elected.
Same feeling that says obamao won't even seek re-election.
The DNC is too embarrassed by him.

42% won't get him re elected with a shitty economy and dog shit performance while in office.

Of course, as a Third Worlder, you aren't real good with US politics.

Checkmate.

… you keep using that word. I do not think that word means what you think it does.

(2) Members of Congress are NOT part of the EXECUTIVE branch of government (notice my intentional capitalization of the word “EXECUT” in my post) – not the one that EXECUTE the laws, but the one that makes them, so one could easily make the constitutional case that it is appropriate for legislators to debate an issue, while the executive remains mum. (2) Regardless, that doesn't make it right. (3) Your comment that the local authorities “have already” spoken only serves to strenghten my point. You remember, it's the point that you are so fucking retarded that you could confuse a display of presidential disdain for the Constitution with “support.” Checkmate indeed dumbass.

No dumbass you said HE, as in Odrama and (members) of Congress, Since they are seperate powers they have seperate responsibilities and duties. And Odrama's has nothing to do with interpreting or creating law, only enforcing it.

You lose another argument for lack of facts and failure to understand how the US Federal govt works.

Huron Voyager = Huron Serenity = EPIC FAIL

Actually, you do. Flagged for trolling.

Yes, you do nitwit. And before you point out that our military does have non-citizens serving in it, that is a long established program that both boosts our military enlistment and provides a path to LEGAL citizenship for people that would otherwise never be able to afford to seek it.

Prove the claim you made or shut up about it!

No, he does not!

That would be admitting to a lie, Huron. And lying is what YOU do!

Go away, Asshatma. Or at the very least learn how to express yourself coherently.
